Abstract

Traditional 3D point cloud classification tasks focus on training a classifier in the closed-set scenario, where training and test data have the same label set and the same data distribution. In this work, we focus on a more challenging and realistic scenario in 3D point cloud classification task: universal domain adaptation (UniDA), where 1) data distributions for training and test data are different; and 2) for given label sets of training data and test data, they may have the shared classes and keep the private classes respectively, introducing an extra label set discrepancy. To solve UniDA problem, researchers have designed many methods based on 2D image datasets. However, due to the difficulty in capturing discriminative local geometric structures brought by the unordered and irregular 3D point cloud data, we cannot directly deploy the existing methods based on 2D image datasets to the 3D scenarios. To address UniDA in 3D scenarios, we develop a 3D universal domain adaptation framework, which consists of three modules: Self-Constructed Geometric (SCG) module, Local-to-Global Hypersphere Reasoning (LGHR) module and Self-Supervised Boundary Adaptation (SBA) module. SCG and LGHR generate the discriminative representation, which is used to acquire domain-invariant knowledge for training and test data. SBA is designed to automatically recognize whether a given label is from the shared label set or private label set, and adapts training and test data from the shared label set. To our best knowledge, this work is the first exploration of UniDA for 3D scenarios. Extensive experiments on public 3D point cloud datasets verify that the proposed method outperforms the existing UniDA methods.
